The whakatauki (proverb) “Ko au te taiao, ko te taiao, ko au” (“the natural environment defines my quality of life”) reiterates the importance of right relationships between the natural environment and people. Tauherea taiao ki ngā hunga utilises an ecosystem approach to explore Waiora (Wellbeing as a binary relationship between the natural environment and people). Grounded in Mātauranga (Māori knowledge), Tauherea taiao ki ngā hunga examines the interconnections between the Taiao (Natural environment) and hunga (people). The cultural construct of whakapapa (lineage, genealogy) is used as a method to centre these interconnections. Significant events of Aotearoa New Zealand, such as the signing of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and their impact on Waiora, will be examined in both historical and contemporary contexts.
